Earth’s Oceans with High Marine Biodiversity Threatened by Future Warming

An international team of scientists led by researchers from the University of Adelaide has revealed that rates of future warming threaten marine life in more than 70 per cent of the most biodiverse-rich areas of Earth's oceans.

Study Assesses Effects of Climate Warming and Water Management on West Florida's Continental Shelf

The continental shelf is the submerged extension of a continent and as such it is at the crossroad of terrestrial, oceanic and atmospheric influences. This confluence is the lead driver of the high biological productivity that often characterizes the continental shelf regions. Their productivity is not only critical to the ecosystems that it sustains but also to the livelihood of coastal communities such as tourism, fishing, aquaculture and more.

New Project Explores How Ecosystem’s "Memory" Of Extreme Climate Events Impacts Productivity

Ecosystems have a long memory. That may not be a good thing. What scientists have learned is that extreme climate events like drought and heat waves don't just negatively impact plants, trees and other vegetation while they're ongoing.

Researchers Analyze How Liquid Manure from Livestock Farming Affects Its Nitrogen Footprint

Factory farming for meat production is harmful to the environment. In addition to its direct emissions of methane, its use of liquid manure releases climate-damaging nitrogen compounds such as ammonia and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere and pollutes the groundwater with nitrates.

Ancient South American Dust Helps Reveal New Clues About The Future Of The Earth's Climate, Researchers Say

Dust that was deposited at the foot of the Andes Mountains in Argentina over the last 1.15 million years helps explain how wind patterns have shifted and could offer clues of what is to come as the Earth's climate changes, according to new research by a team from South Carolina and Arizona.

Research Shows Link Between Coastal Glacier Retreat and Climate Change

More of the world's coastal glaciers are melting faster than ever, but exactly what's triggering the large-scale retreat has been difficult to pin down because of natural fluctuations in the glaciers' surroundings.

Global Warming Makes Pine Trees More Susceptible to Disease

The high heat and low water conditions produced by global warming weaken pine trees' resistance to disease by hindering their ability to mount an effective defense at the same time that pathogenic fungi in their tissues become more aggressive, new research suggests.
